Vinpearl GC- hole 12 tee
Vinpearl Golf Course was designed by IMG design and opened for play in 2012.
The course was developed as part of a larger plan that includes luxury accommodation, world class theme park and so much more..
The Vinpearl course is located on hilly island terrain.
The course moves up and down through the dense jungle providing a variety of golfing experiences.
Whilst the course could be described as resort like, it presents a serious golfing challenge.
With bougainvillea in bloom, the nicely manicured course presented as a most enjoyable and picturesque golf outing.
But it is a serious challenge at the same time.
Although the locals find it amusing!
Vinpearl GC- the locals find the golf amusing!
